Shorebird

We had a really yummy dinner here. We started with the shrimp appetizer and the avocado fries. Both were excellent. For dinner, we had the swordfish sandwich, the Chilean seabass and the pork chop. All were really good but the pork chop was outstanding. 10/10 highly recommend. We had key lime pie for dessert, also delicious. Service was decent, especially considering how busy our server was. Atmosphere downstairs had great music and it was very pretty. Upstairs was nice but would’ve preferred sitting downstairs. Overall, we liked it and we will be back.

I’m shocked there aren’t more reviews condemning Shorebird’s actions on Christmas Day. We arrived promptly for our reservation— a few minutes early, in fact. However, we were made to wait over 40 minutes to be seated at our table. That should have been our first sign to get out while we still could. However, it was Christmas; we grew a bit impatient, but trusted that the food and experience at Shorebird would be worth it. Not to mention many restaurants are closed on Christmas and we felt we didn’t have much of a choice. (Spoiler: it was not worth it!) When we were finally seated at approximately 7:00, our waiter takes our orders for drinks, appetizers, and entrees and proceeds to make himself scarce. We did not see him again for nearly 90 minutes. An hour after ordering, at which point

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Shorebird restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting. Live music playing in the background was a nice touch. Our food was delicious. Cocktails were great too. A special shout-out to the manager, Robert—he went above and beyond, making sure every detail was perfect and that we felt truly welcomed. I can’t recommend Shorebird enough.

The filet was wonderful, but the pork chop was a little dry with little seasoning. Drinks and dessert were all very good.

We felt fortunate to grab a last-minute reservation on Christmas Day, and so appreciated the staff that worked to enable us to dine at Shorebird! It’s a nicely-designed space with a cool, laidback vibe. All of our food was very tasty and the service was friendly, if a bit slow. Turns out we may have been fortunate to have been seated at 5pm, because by the time we left, the restaurant was full, and the lobby packed with people waiting to be seated. (We could have vacated our table at least 15 minutes earlier than we did if anyone had come to take my CC). We enjoyed our meal and would be happy to go back sometime.
